First PC build....ever!

[Tan3l6]

Just a notice - no point of linking to Bestbuy pages, after they are linked they are sold

I was just trying to advise to buy the RTX 2060 prebuilt i linked - SOLD OUT!

 

Maybe keep an eye on the Bestbuy pre-builts - these, when in stock seem to have the best GPUs.

I mean this is my first build. I’m ok with something decent and upgrading later when everything in the world chills out.

Yea I’ve been doing research on them since you guys pointed them out. It’s going to be tuff to find something before it’s sold. I’m stuff not sure if I want to buy prebuilt or build. Like I said earlier I also need two PCs....we will see lol

With patience, and $20 extra you could step the motherboard down to b550, cooler down to an over kill air cooler (could step this down to something closer to a U9 or U12 Chromax if you wanted it to not have Noctua colors), and then step up to a 6800 from the 580. 

PCPP will show a compatibility error with the motherboard and CPU, but you just need a USB stick that you can put the newer BIOS on. This board will support bios flashing without a CPU.

I’d drop the cooler to a Scythe Fuma 2, or just use the stock cooler. Also that PSU is pretty crap
